Description

Even if you know the Apache web server inside and out, you still need an occasional on-the-job reminder - especially if you're moving to the newer Apache 2.x. This book gives you exactly what you need to get the job done without forcing you to plow through a cumbersome doorstop of a reference. "Apache 2 Pocket Reference" offers essential information to help you configure and maintain the server quickly, with brief explanations that get directly to the point. The second edition covers Apache 2.x as well as popular Apache 1.3.x still used by many web masters, web administrators, programmers, and others. This new edition includes: summaries of command-line options, configuration directives, and modules; key information about Apache support utilities; and, compatibility issues between Apache 1.3.x and Apache 2.x. Apache remains a key component in the vast majority of networks on the Web, currently running more than half of the world's sites. Whether you manage huge e-commerce operations, corporate intranets, or small hobby websites, "Apache 2 Pocket Reference" is ideal for savvy administrators who no long need detailed tutorials - and it's just the right size for your tote bag.
